153 THIS Іт? 
і GUESS NOY 


Last month I mentioned about UPDATES 


magazine and how Bill Jones would not 


be able to keep it going. Well 1 got à 
call from Frank Davis of the indiana 
group and he is going to handle the 


publication for SNUG starting with the 


October issue. So at times it may seem 


like all of the Sinclair community 
hanging from the end of a shredding 
rope, there are heroes that ride in 
with tape to shore up the коре. We 
still may be at the епа of the lona 
rope but at least it is in better 
shape. What we really could use 1s 
some help from Sinclair, Sugar, and/or 
help from the European community. 


There is an idea of and international 


group апа I feel this may heip extend 
tne life of our "Great Littie 
Computers." The other thing is to try 


to show off what the Sinclair can do. 
If there are computer shows in your 
area try to get a spot where you can 
show off your 7Х81/1000, Spectrum/20698 
QL or Z88. Get in touch with local 
newspapers or radio amateur or amateur 
astronomer society. They may be 
looking for help with z88 programming. 
One other avenue to explore is its a 
cheap first computer for the child. 17 
people know about the "little black 
box" that a child can operate апа 
doesn't cost an arm or leg you may get 
new members at a younger age. There is 
one other мау that I know of and 
that's going to swap fests and flea 
markets and leaving flyers with апу 


one selling Sinclair hardware or 
software besides at the entrance to 
the place. If we can get more peopie 


interested in the Sinclair line mavbe 
we can get Sugar or someone to start 
up the line again. It sure would be 
nice to see 400 to 500 attendees at 
the annual fest. One other option is 
to produce a little programming class 
to be shown on your local cable 
network. This could also bring them in 
or at least make them aware of what a 
computer can do for them and what vie? 
can do with a "real" computer.

The Digitizer and 
А Problem Found. 
Notes From Marty. 


By now there are several of you 


playing around with the digitizer 
board. Some of you have had great 
Pictures created and some are getting 
a black scan after 3 to 7 passes. 1 
myself was getting a black scan just 
by bringing my hand NEAR the board. 
All is not -lost. I have found the 
problem on the board. Somehow when the 
boards were made a foil run was 
omitted & that's causing this problem. 
Please refer to the schematic diagram 
and note that pins 1 8 20 are BOTH 
tied to the 5 volt line. On the board 
a jumper on the component side was 
omitted. This can easily be corrected. 
Hold the board in your hand with the 
component side away from you and refer 
to the layout diagram. IC6 is the IC 
in the lower right hand corner & pins 
1 & 20 are the pins at the bottom. Add 
a bridge of solder from the open 
bottom pin to the foil run connecting 
the other bottom pin and you are all 
set. If you have any doubts about 
doing this - Continued on page 8.

I had to write a 
of the Expo

program to keep track 
attendees for producing 
and I will have that available 
at the expo. There will be no charge, 
if you supply your own media. Please 
note this is for the QL and I am using 
3 1/2 disks, but I Should have a 5 1/4 
available also. I will also have a new 
Program available, for the QL, that is 
för- voting. It Will keep track of the 
voting for officers of your user group 
or what have you. It also will be 
free. They will be available Sat. 
afternoon as my QL may be tied up in 
the morning with registration for the 
Expo. 

attend the 


Be sure to SNUG meeting 


Saturday night. Meet at least some of 
the officers and find out just what 
the Situation with SNUG is. Paul 


Holmgren is the acting President and 


will be there. Voice your opinions and 
have your say. The meeting will be 
pool side so if it gets to hot you can 
just go jump, in the pool that is, and 
cool off. 

So "see you in Milwaukee" June 2-3 and 


hope you get what you want. Mera psc

to return the board to me, 
PUO: Box 101, Butler WI 
and I will correct it for you. 
I still do not know why these boards 
worked at all. With that Pin floating 
in space the 8 flip-flops in the 
74HCT273 could Clear whenever they 
felt like it. Weil) I| guess І'11 see 
some of you at the Expo. Right now I 
am going to get started on trying out 
John McMichael's "VIDEOTEX" Program 
using the OKIMATE 29 color printer to 
colorize some of these Pictures I've 
digitized. Marty Miller. 


Bill brought some of the T shirts that 
will be used for the Expo. The general 
consensus is they look great. To hold 
the price down we are Setting the 
Price under $7. Also it seems the Expo 
Will require many hands to keep the 
Expo going. So please attend this next 
meeting for assignments. There will be 
Special incentives for those helping 
with the Expo.
